Tyler Wasson, Psy.D.

"Just let go. Let go of how you thought your life should be, and embrace the life that is trying to work its way into your consciousness." -Caroline Myss --- DR. TYLER WASSON --- I’m a Licensed Clinical Psychologist committed to helping people learn how to live more fulfilling lives, with less struggle. I believe in the innate beauty and potential that is revealed when we embrace our full humanity, including the parts of us that we may feel are shameful and would rather not see. My work focuses on facilitating a profound internal paradigm shift that leads to less internal struggle with uncomfortable thoughts and emotions, and more clarity and motivation to take the actions that create a meaningful life, drawing from Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and other mindfulness-based and Positive Psychology strategies.  -- Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) -- Additionally, I’m excited to offer a cutting-edge “psychedelic” therapeutic modality called Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), which is the use of ketamine as a complement to traditional talk-based psychotherapy. I deliver KAP in my practice in partnership with an organization called Journey Clinical, which has a specialized medical team that determines eligibility for KAP, prescribes the ketamine lozenges, and supports us in monitoring outcomes. I’ve seen profound changes through this work, and it’s exciting to take part in the cultural shift toward more public curiosity, knowledge, and acceptance of psychedelics as deeply healing medicine.

I’m am routinely sought out by other queer people because they know there’s just something special about receiving care from a queer-identified provider who can identify with many of their circumstances and struggles. I have also worked extensively with people in the tech world for the past several years, beginning with a 3-year stint working at the onsite health center at the Meta headquarters (formerly Facebook/Instagram) in the Silicon Valley, giving me a unique inside look at the unique stressors of today’s corporate workforce. -- Virtual Reach -- My practice is fully virtual/remote, offering teletherapy services within the entire states of California and Florida. (Florida Dept. of Health requires the following link to their website be provided here: https://flhealthsource.gov/telehealth/.) -- Payment and Insurance -- My practice is self-pay, as have chosen to not be paneled with any insurance providers, other than the Lyra and Modern Health employer benefits programs.
